巴士从河内到琅勃拉邦

巴士晚点了 2 小时，这在东亚是可以接受的，所以没问题。我们本该乘坐技术巴士，但它肯定不是。这也是可以接受的。但最糟糕的是，大巴不是在出发前 1、2、5 个小时到达，而是晚了 16 个小时（我们花了 39 个小时，而不是 23 个小时到达），我们基本上在一辆大巴上度过了两个晚上，这辆大巴基本上是在送货，每隔 20 分钟送一次货（我们睡在一台电视机和一些大米袋之间），同时还要送人去老挝。此外，有一个轮胎在途中被扎破了，让我们耽误了几个小时（好像还不够似的）去补胎，而司机在这段时间里只是让我们随便在街上的一家餐馆吃了点东西，然后就悄无声息地离开了我们。如果您想寻找刺激，又不赶时间，那就不去 pb，否则就另寻他处吧。

The bus left 2h late, this is acceptable in East Asia so no problem. We Were supposed to do the trip with a techbus, it was certainly not one. This could be acceptable as well. But the worst part was that the bus arrived not 1,2, 5 hours left but 16HOURS LATE ( took us 39h instead of 23h to arrive) we basically spent 2nights in a bus that was basically Doing deliveries, taking merchandise (we were sleeping between a TV and a some rice bags at some points) every 20min while taking people on its way to laos. Added to that one of the tire punctured on our way, making us loose several hours (as if it was not already enough) to get it repaired while the driver just let us at a random street restaurant during this time and leaving us without telling us. If you are searching for thrill and you are not in a hurry then no pb otherwise find another alternative

比我们预想的要好。司机人很好，很乐于助人。唯一的遗憾是，我们比预期晚了两个小时到达目的地。

It was better then we expected. The driver was really nice and helpful. The only thing that was not great was that we arrived 2 hours later then expected

这是我们第二次走这条路，因为第一次我们到达边境后不得不返回河内，因为我们不知道老挝已经不能办理落地签证了。我们准时从河内出发，几乎在晚上 9 点到达琅勃拉邦。这辆巴士不仅是正式的人员运输工具，还是货物运送服务。巴士在途中停了十几次，收集和运送多种物品，包括更多没有车票的人。所有这一切都更像是腐败司机的副业，而不是公司组织的活动。 中途很少停车上厕所（特别是女厕所）和吃饭。司机在车内不停地抽烟，空调也损坏了几次。

This was the second time we took this route since the first time we arrived to the border and had to go back to Hanoi since we didn't know that it wasn't possible to get on-arrival visas to Laos anymore. We left on time from Hanoi and arrive almost at 9 pm to Luang Prabang. More than a formal transport for people, the bus was a goods delivery service.The bus stopped more than a dozen times to collect and deliver multiple items on the way, including more people with no tickets. All felt more like of it was a side business from corrupted drivers than something organized from the company. There were few stops to go to proper toilets (specially for women) and to eat. The drivers smoked constantly inside the bus and the air conditioning damaged a couple of times.

Worst company, completely unorganised, started on a vip bus then got separated. The other group were given visa declarations cards before they got to the front, made the process easy for them. Us on the other hand, no communication at all. We anyway got put into like a 12 man van starting with 3 of us, randomly picking up supplies and other people along the way from the boarder of veitnam to about 4 hours into Laos. DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY

Bus from Hanoi to Luang Prabang: Pro: - cheap - an experience you won‘t forget - you can sleep for 30+ hours Con: - 31 hours instead of 24 hours (to be expected in Asia) - roads on Laos side are miserable. We were driving 20 km/h there - frequent stops to load parcels or people (to be expected in Asia) - bus overbooked so Vietnamese guests that joined at later bus stops had to sleep on the floor (to be expected in Asia) - no sockets/plugs, toilet, wifi, … -> very old bus Tbh, I enjoyed the drive, but many people hated their ride Recommendations: Bring WARM clothes and all that you have to keep yourself warm in your carry-on backpack Bring loads of snacks/dry food that won‘t expire Change some money to USD so you can pay in restaurants on the Laos side.

6 hours late... Arrived at 1h in luang prabang

Good
